Recently launched superbikes GT650R and ST7 are not likely to take Garware Motors places in terms of volume. To overcome this, the two-wheeler company is coming out with two new launches: GT650 (no R here) and GT250R.
Garware Motors has entered a new segment with the launch of Hyosung motorcycles in India. The company has been doing decent numbers with the superbikes it sells but is now planning to further increase its market share.
Currently Garware Motors sells the Hyosung ST7 and the GT650R in India. Both these bikes offer tremendous value to the buyer with the ST7 drawing more attention than a Mercedes, Audi and BMW would do, combined.

These two bikes, however, won't get Garware Motors the volume, thus they plan to launch two new machines, and very exciting ones at that.

The next bike to come from Garware Motors' stable is the GT650 (no R here).
The GT650 is based on its elder sibling the GT650R but lacks the full fairing. Instead the GT650 is more of a naked streetfighter motorcycle and will appeal to a lot of us in India.

The Hyosung GT250R is a 250cc machine, just like the Honda CBR250R and the Kawasaki Ninja 250R.
However the baby Hyosung features a twin-cylinder motor, unlike the single cylinder motor in the CBR250R.

We can expect Hyosung to aggressively price the GT250R around Rs 2 lakh when they start selling this quarter liter machine early next year.

Never do the salesman stop you from doing anything and lets you experience the bikes. This is a fantastic approach. With promising service and expansion of dealership network on the cards, Garware Motors has indeed brought Hyosung home.
